Hi! I’m Tui, an electronic musician based in Perth, Australia.
I compose and research audio for video games.
Growing up I was always immersed in either a book or a video game. I understand the deeply personal connections and experiences forged through gameplay and aim to strengthen these in my soundscapes.
Through pairing my creative practice with the study of ludomusicology, I investigate how video game audio can connect us to new experiences and perspectives.
Raised by an opera singer and a programmer, I must begrudgingly admit that we do, in fact, turn into our parents.

Creative Work
Composition – Sound Design – Game Dev
My undergraduate degree in Electronic Music and Sound Design at the University of Western Australia taught me the joy of composing for video games. I have a strong grounding in music theory – as well as a technical proficiency in DAWs, coding and middleware. Backed by this skillset, I love creating interesting, effective audio implementations that make players feel.
Academia
Ludomusicology – Creative Practice PhD
Currently, I am a PhD candidate at the University of Western Australia. My research examines how video game audio can build empathy and social cohesion, via connecting players with diverse avatars.
